and did a walking tour of some historical sights in nyc
@Vilhjalmyr "45% of California is owned by the Federal Government, from National Parks to Wilderness Refuge etc.
They act as an absentee landlord, implementing a top-down approach to ecosystem management, which is why past harvesting methods proved unsustainable and harmful to connecting ecosystems.
" That's really interesting to know! In his tweet Trump seems to blame the CA government, but you say it's a federal issue. Is it Trump mismanaging the forests there or some government beauraucracy?
I actually do like hockey
@Nerv - VA yeah it's nice, an IE bud and I went to a pregame this year, he explained me the rules. The offsides thing always confused me before, but now it's a pretty cool game.
@ThisIsChris CA used up all their fed funding on unscrupulous bullshit, so they criminally mismanaged in order to have fires worth declaring emergency over, which kicks in more funding. that's their "workaround" to fed funding canceled over sanctuary cities
@ThisIsChris nice 👍
@Gumbo - AZ that's huge if true, do you have a source that is the motivation? Setting large swaths of your own state on fire to get gibs you lost because you became a sanctuary state is huge and insane.
@Nerv - VA do you have a team you watch?
i didn't say they set it on fire, but they rolled back ENORMOUS funding for the programs that managed environment conditions leading to fires
that's why trump called them out, because they wasted the money they were supposed to use protecting those lands. i agree with what he said above
@ThisIsChris penguins, I watch caps too sometimes
no kidding, got connections to pittsburgh?
That’s where I’m from
I moved to Va after HS
They also use it to push the global warming chorus
@Gumbo - AZ it's actually mostly red districts that were on fire
i smell some "broward county 2.0" here
*are
absolutely
@ThisIsChris I grew up in Wexford, North Allegheny.
do you know why 9 people died so far in the fire?
traffic jams
the fire caught people in the traffic jams
and burned their cars
or them
@Nerv - VA cool! any Amish lived near you?
Haha no, it’s like the suburbs.
Or it was I heard it’s totally different now.
Also it was very very white.
@Nerv - VA Isn't Pittsburgh like the whitest city?
and most livable?
I heard it’s changing
But it was
not whitest if you look to rural but yes for big cities - it's very lib now though
Well so long as Pittsburgh stays 2% white while everything else goes to 1% then it will remain the whitest city!
PGH will explode from NYC flight, they have really good setup
i've been thinking about moving there, i did a city matrix across the US and it's poised to grow like Austin did over the last decade
Yep, "meds and eds" was the catch phrase I heard while I was there
very good schools
u pitt
